--- Quote ---Three Caribbean winners at NCAA NCAA Outdoor Championships?
Created on Tuesday, 05 June 2012 16:40 | Written by By Vijay, fosteraa@ymail.com | Print | Email
DES MOINES, USA - Caribbean athletes are not strongly favoured to win many events at the 2012 NCAA Outdoor Championships, starting Wednesday in Des Moines, Iowa.
As a matter of fact, only Cayman Islands' Kemar Hyman and Jamaicans Andrew Riley and Chad Wright were picked by track and field news as potential champions.
And even though the Caribbean flags according to track & field news predictions, will not fly high, very few will also be crowned all-americans.
Hyman, who lowered the Cayman Islands record to 10.07 at ACC Outdoor Championships this season, is tipped for the 100m title ahead of his Florida State teammate Maurice Mitchell.
In the men's 110m hurdles, Riley of Illinois is favoured over LSU's Barrett Nugent and Devon Hill of Miami. Wayne Davis of Texas A&M who recently set a new trinidad & Tobago record is listed to finish 5th while Barbadian Shane Brathwaite of Texas Tech and Jamaican Keiron Stewart of Texas are 8th and 9th.
Wright, in the discus, is expected to get the better of Luke Byrant of Okahoma and Tyler Hitchler of Nebraska.
Jamaican Demar Forbes who is down to represent LSU, is third in the men's long jump
On the women's side, Trinidad & Tobago's Semoy Hackett (LSU), at #3 and #5 for the 200m and 100m respecively is the best placed Caribbean female on the prediction list.
Another Trinidad & Tobago athlete Annie Alexander (Tennessee) is third in the discus throw.
Jody-Ann Muir of Mississippi Sate is listed at 8th in the 400m, while her former Wolmer's and Jamaica junior teamate Danielle Dowie is 6th on the 400m hurdles list.
Jamaican Francine Simpson is 6th for the women's long jump.

Deon Lendore was not mentioned in the article, but he is definitely one to look out for. He has a firecracker of a semi-final later on today.

Lendore Was ahead for the last 80m. Took it easy in the last 20. End up finishing third. Lucky. Qualified as fastest loser.

Lendore gets in by the skin of his pants, but to make the final as a freshman is a very good accomplishment.
Boy is the 400m deep this year. 44.6 in the prelims...lawd!!

Lendore was on pace to run sub 45. He did not finish strong. He backed down towards the end of the race. He will have to run sub 45 if he expects to medal.
